Description

Visitors often dynamically alter their initial activity (shopping, dining and so on) plans while walking around shopping areas in the city center: they execute additional activities or give up some planned activities. It is useful to know the factors influencing such alterations to find out the measures for encouraging their activities in the areas. This study aims to reveal the mechanism of pedestrian travel behavior in shopping areas in the city center, focusing on alteration of their activities initially planned. The findings are based on the questionnaires to visitors to the central area of Kobe City conducted by the authors. In this study, we first measure the change in the action space of an individual caused by alteration of his or her initial activity plan. We also build individual destination (activity location) choice models for pedestrian travel behavior in both cases of with and without the alternation and examine the difference between the two models.
